Growth of many -celled organisms is due to an increase in what?
It is due to the increase in the amount of cells. The growth of single-celled organisms is due to the increase in the size of the cell.
What is the term giving to irreversible increase in the size of living thigs?
Hypertrophy is the term used to describe the irreversible increase in the size of living things, typically due to an increase in the size of individual cells.
What is the difference between hyperplasia and hypertrophy?
Hyperplasia is an increase in the number of cells in an organ or tissue, leading to its enlargement, whereas hypertrophy is an increase in the size of existing cells in an organ or tissue. Both processes contribute to the growth of tissues, but through different mechanisms.
What is the medical term meaning a general increase in the bulk of a body part due to an increase in the size but not in the number of cells in the tissue?
HYPERTROPHY
What is the Hypertrophy?
Hypertrophy is the increase in size of muscle cells due to an increase in protein synthesis. It is a common adaptation to resistance training and leads to muscle growth and increased strength. Hypertrophy can be achieved through various training protocols that involve progressive overload and adequate nutrition.
Is a general increase in the bulk of a body part due to an increase in the size but not in the number of cells?
Hypertrophy
When a muscle grows in size what name do we give to the muscle growth?
When muscles grow in size we call this hypertrophy.The word hypertrophy actually refers to an increase in the size of an organ due to an increase in the size of the cells, rather than to an increase in the number of cells. Other body tissues can actually undergo hypertrophy, such as the heart or kidneys (this is usually a bad thing). To differentiate, we usually refer to muscle growth as muscle hypertrophy, but the term is so often applied to muscle building that this is usually not necessary in lay discussions.Increases in size due to an increase in the number of cells (cell proliferation, by the way, is called hyperplasia.
What are hypertrophied genitals?
Hypertrophied genitals is simply hypertrophy in a person's genitals. Hypertrophy is the increase in size of an organ due to the increase in size of its cells. (There is the same amount of cells, but they just get bigger) dont confuse this with hyperplasia which is the increase in the size of an organ due to the increase in number of cells.
What term implies an increase in body size without any important changes in shape?
Hypertrophy refers to an increase in the size of an organ or tissue, typically due to an increase in the size of its individual cells. So, hypertrophy involves an increase in body size without significant changes in shape.
Growth due to an increase in cell number is called?
Growth that is due to an increase in cell number results from an increased rate of mitotic cell division and is termed hyperplasia. Consequently, growth of a tissue or organ due to an increase in cell size is termed hypertrophy.
What is increase in chemical permeability in the epidermis due to?
increase in the spacing between cells
Why plant cell increase in length and size?
Plant cells increase in length and size due to the process of cell elongation, where cells take up water and expand. This is mainly driven by the turgor pressure created by water entering the cell vacuole. As cells elongate, plant tissues and organs also grow in size, allowing the plant to increase in overall size.
